Hello.
Firstly I'm French, si please don't be too rude about my english. I've discovered Dolphin very recently.. Knowing PCSX2, I would not imagine that my engine could run a more powerfull game system.. I'm very impressed.
That's my problem : When I play Tales of Symphonia, the game run very good, but after a few fight (3 or 4 generally), the speed is droped by 2. It works usually with 100% (I play with double of native resolution, but the problem is encountered with all I've tried so far), but after some fight, the game become very slow. I don't understand. When I STOP emulation, wait a few minutes (3~5) and play again, it works fine.. then it restart. It don't works with "pause". Can someone help me ?
I play on my laptop : Acer - T4400 2.2Ghz - 4Gb Ram - Ati HD 4570M - Windows 7 - 64 bit - Last release of Dolphin
Thank you in advance

PS : I read the rules of the forum and I haven't seen I've done anything again the rules..

If it were too weak to play Dolphin I couldn't play several minutes with 100% speed I guess.. no ?
I wanna play all interesting RPG on NGC. aka Baten Kaitos 1 & 2, Skies of Arcadia, Paper Mario, perhaps Zelda and Final Fanrasy Chronicles. Plus, I've seen this video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJMSUdyYqbc

Ok merci, je vais voir ce que je peux faire concernant cette surchauffe.
Thank you, I'll see what I can do about this overating.
And I will buy thoses games.. the ones that exists in French. Not others.

He said that the game is running at 100% speed for some time, than he needs to stop to reach the 100% again- For me it seems that the Laptop is overheating and for that it is underclocking.Tales of Symphonia needs Low level sound to work perfect,but at really high performance loss. I think he is playing Tales of Symphonia at high level sound, with that it is the fastest game i know.

@EvilNeo:You should check the temps of your processor with some software like CoreTemp and post the hightest temps you reached when the game can't reach the full frames anymore.
